Justin R. for Model Number Whirlpool SM 8525147-! Washing cycle stops just before spin cycle (tub will not drain). Originally thought it was clogged or the pump; however, pulled and cleaned all hoses and made sure pump was clear. If I unplug the machine, wait a few minutes and turn it back on it will sometimes work - draining and spinning working as normal. Also occasionally hear a buzzing sound coming from timer. Is this likely part # 8542050?
Answer Hi. Sounds like you hear from the timer is a direct hint of immediate failure of the timer part # WP8542050. Bring up this timer on our website. Then scroll down to the bottom of the same page and see if your model # is included. If so then you need one. The SM825147-? is the serial #. The model # is right above it. Thank You. Read More...
